Vicious troll made my life a bit miserable for a week but I think they will be miserable for a lot longer than I was so I'm over it.

Spent time in the gym turning rage into muscle. Achieved a zen calm that comes from knowing I can lift enemies and put them in the garbage.

I've had a really good 24 hours y'all. Fixed bug that had annoyed me for ages, someone offered me a cupboard to live in "like Harry Potter"…
-
…we launched the techspeakdigest anniversary and I know where I'm gonna live in 2016. Also: two excellent workouts.
-
My only complaint really is insufficient raccoon / hedgehog / owl pictures but you know I'm a reasonable person. One can't have everything.
-
(Not actually going to live in the cupboard but it was a very kind and much appreciated offer).
-
indec so true

Argh visas. Generally one complaint about life lately is I spend a lot more time than I want to worrying about being deported.
-
Maybe I just never want to worry about being deported? But I feel like that would mean embracing a much more boring type of existence.
-
And I don't want to miss out... maybe it would be interesting to be deported? Just not from anywhere I want to go again.
-
A truly terrible idea and yet somehow appealing... charlesv/661942221910839298
-
NeoNacho that is true. A Terrible Fate.
-
NeoNacho that would be one way to decide where to live: have NO OTHER OPTIONS.
-
NeoNacho Also I think most European countries would only deport me for serious criminal activity.
-
NeoNacho I don't think I'm cut out for criminal activity. It's a personal limitation, I guess.

NeoNacho Tiny Raccoon is a pillar of the community.

Yay finished first book of #nonovelnov The Truth About Burnout. Mostly interested into how it intersects with other things i think about.

NeoNacho I do have the odd other thought you know. Like today about async testing and visas and stuff.

Next up for #nonovelnov an actual physical book (I don't recall when I last read a few physical book! ~4 years?)

I want to give this talk again because I know I can do it better but also because it's stuff I think we should talk about.
-
Was probably the most terrifying talk I gave this year because it was the most personal. It's about how I left the tech industry.
-
Maybe in 2016 I can give a talk about how I got to a point where I felt I could go back.

-
Finished watching "I am Cait" this morning in the gym and teared up a little. I appreciated it way more than I thought I would.
-
Essentially because it's a show about someone learning empathy. And learning to have girlfriends.
-
Girlfriends will love you, they will have your back, but they will call you on your shit.
-
Problematic comments were called out, were deconstructed. I learned a bunch of stuff watching it.
-
Also just keeping it real eg my fave quote from Jenny Boylan, "you have gone to such trouble to be a woman. Don't be a stupid one."
-
I get people have Feelings about Caitlyn Jenner and her path isn't open to hardly anyone. That was covered, but not enough.
-
Anyway my overall take was worth watching. *Disclaimer: I watch all kardashian shows.

Further visa investigation: today's guy was like "you just can't stay for more than 90 days at a time" and I'm like TRUST ME NOT A PROBLEM.

NeoNacho actually couldn't tell you when I last spent more than 90 days in one country.

Finally FINALLY my battle with TestFlight is over... a build was uploaded. And processed. And is now in Beta Review.
-
This took 11 goes because NO ERROR MESSAGES and the last thing I tried was unchecking the bitcode box when exporting from xcode.
-
Note: disabling bitcode didn't work. But also this was a completely unscientific strategy because have I mentioned NO ERROR MESSAGES.

Some friends have been trying to convince me to date again and it's probably best if they never see that tweet. Or maybe they'd give up.

sundress like my friend was all "you travel constantly how don't you meet anyone" and I was like "idk I don't talk to people"

zmagg no last time I saw signs for a vertical garden and I want to track it down.

SHaug you say this, you didn't have my experience at the Canadian border the other week.

zmagg yeah I'll be working so doesn't seem worth going somewhere I would want to explore.

-
Review from last time: catehuston.com/blog/2015/05/15/book-hot-seat/ I wish more of my friends would write books because then I can ask them better questions.
-
Also this might be the only business book where I read it and (still) wanted to hang out with the person who wrote it.
-
danshapiro r343l y'all are so domestic I made rehydration liquid today and tbh I think I got it wrong.
-
danshapiro r343l yes i put some kind of tabs in it? I had to break them up too. As I understand it >=2 ingredients is like cooking.
-
Ooh exciting next book for #nonovelnov past cate bought me the new mindy kaling.

I think my attempts to be nicer to future cate are starting to pay off because I also found 14 cans of cherry Coke the other day.

-
jewelia I am going to have nightmares about that now
-
rtgarden I arrived and I have some of those things
-
Sometimes I wonder why I still fly star alliance and then I remember no airlines do status matching anymore.
-
Basically I will be flying star alliance until I die or until I don't fly enough to make the minimum miles / segments.
-
dantoml back when airlines treated passengers like human beings if you had status on one another would match it to get you to switch.
-
pilky :( I'm sorry honey!

SHaug the real glory of a hat is the fluffy pom pom

SHaug the real tragedy of fluffy Pom poms is you only get them for winter, 1-6 months of the year depending on your location.

It may not surprise you to learn that he did not apologise or appear to even notice. Now I can't find my battery :(

It's been enough time since that whole coc debacle that I'm ready to kinda talk about it. Bear with me whilst I have some feeling at y'all.
-
1: my anxiety about it went way on far longer than stuff lasted. I was very worried that I would be a social pariah in the iOS community.
-
2: I got way more love and support than hate but the usual 1/5 negative/positive interactions applied. I felt the hate disproportionately.
-
3: there were various people who I expected better from who were "neutral". I see you.
-
4: it was quite scary to me how much I have planned for that kind of stuff. I hear this from other women too - this should worry all of us.
-
5: this has re-enforced my belief that a CoC is a minimum requirement. Those who argue against them are often problematic in other ways.

SHaug Awwh so cute! Tuna is adorbz!
-
tTikitu yeah I mean I have been thinking about it more in a sense of responsible and effective use of power.
-
tTikitu I also think that when managers just do salary and leave it to someone else to coach that is a sign of a "neutral" manager.
-
tTikitu because in effect part of career dev has been handed off to someone who may not have had training or be accountable.
-
tTikitu not sold on holocracy - same power structures now with maximum opacity.
-
tTikitu well it depends on the person handed off to. If they are good it might work out. If not...
-
tTikitu my use of the word "neutral" is more like... A noop.
-
r343l I think about what concrete thing I can do to move things forward in the direction I want.
-
tTikitu did you read the article about how it failed at zappos?
-
tTikitu based on my reading about it I cannot imagine going to work in a place that adopted it.
-
RT buritica: if you keep boasting your diversity numbers and acting all special about it, diverse teams will not become normal
-
tTikitu yeah they are just now its the poster for a horror movie
-
r343l this is basically how I respond to any kind of personal angsting and my default answer is to go to the gym.
-
tTikitu people's personal experiences on medium have been illuminating. Not nec negative but worrying. My takeaway f/zappos: doesn't scale.
-
My efforts to be nicer to future cate mostly involve buying myself drinks ahead of jetlagged dehydration. Cate on Dec 25 will thank me.
-
I have a massage booked this morning that past-Cate arranged for me and honestly I would sooner be coding but past-Cate meant well.
-
tTikitu I would also read women don't ask, unlocking the clubhouse, and whistling Vivaldi. I think these are foundational for inclusivity.
-
tTikitu Aha I made a list catehuston.com/blog/2015/02/27/5-books-to-read-instead-of-wadhwa/
-
tTikitu to;dr my problem with holocracy isn't what it claims but how I fear it is likely to interact with structural inequality.

Android coding got faster once I had dependency injection set up (thanks chiuki) & also accepted that sometimes singletons are The Answer.

I feel deep sense of self-loathing about use of singletons but when your activity gets destroyed on rotation and it's hard to pass state...

r343l part of the "fun" of android development is you get to find out what they have called things. See also: "SeekBar".
-
r343l haha yeah. Have I told you about final classes yet? You're going to enjoy that.
-
r343l when all things are ugly all things are in fact the same
-
roidrage haha I'll get through the other 5, the one I preordered.... and then come back to you ;)
-
r343l in android pretty much all classes are final, which makes android approaching untestable. Hence: roboelectric.
-
r343l I meant to tell you later and give you nightmares but I guess I'm not that evil ;)
-
r343l haha it's okay i deciphered what you meant :) although I did think you were defending the use of spinner for a moment.
-
r343l yeah you use a framework that is written to get around the fact that all things are final. It's ridiculous.
-
r343l it all made a lot more sense to me when someone on the android team told me that they didn't write tests.
-
shirlsgaw lol :)
-
r343l is it a drop down list tho?
-
mrb_bk I bet :) I have actually made it as far as 13 now :) and if we ever overlap in space+time I would love to have coffee with you!
-
r343l is it an animated thing that goes in circles?
-
mrb_bk amaze will do!
-
r343l woah maybe the like, meaningful name gave it away. Maybe I'm some kind of savant. Who can tell!?
-
My debugging for last ~30 mins: run app on phone, rotate it in various places. 6 years of uni and this is how I spend my time. So rewarding.
-
r343l yeah I think these were foundational decisions that devs will pay for forever :/
-
When people talk about smart programmers I think about things like this; not so much intellect as bloodymindedness and tolerance for boring.
-
r343l I think it's lack of empathy for other devs, same problem as vast majority of dev tooling. Our way is best way, etc.
-
jacknutting maybe, I dropped out of the second one though ;)
-
NeoNacho :)
-
NeoNacho extra fun: i can't figure out how to rotate the android sim, so HAS to be done on device.
-
kristinathai yeah this is android so the activity (eq. to viewcontroller) gets destroyed each time the phone rotates.
-
plragde ooh would watch. Thanks!
-
ansate :/ I don't think I could delete it though. I think in time they will drop down the list naturally.
-
ansate maybe you can use this as a reason to facetime!! We can facetime!

-
callmewuest I don't understand?
-
callmewuest ohhh I see what you meant :)
-
kristinathai that is how it works.
-
kristinathai Also it doesn't completely get destroyed so e.g. if have an observer on a service you can get one notification per rotation.
-
I suspect the main problem with my code rn is that I am hungry.

mrtazz yeah I have managed a couple of weeks this year where I did ~3 hours a day and it's amazing
-
mrtazz but those are not my most productive weeks in other areas :/

r343l would you like to take mine next?
-
r343l I don't know, could you?
-
I had some idea to throw a dinner party and then I remembered the time when I did and my friends showed up with plastic cups and plates.
-
Which were totally useful. They also brought food. Which was also important. And then I remembered no domestic skills means no dinner party.
-
I mean unless you have good (and domesticated) enough friends that when you decide to throw a dinner party they bring you one.
-
r343l do you want to come over for potluck when I am in Seattle? You will need to bring food but there might be plates. I will check.
-
KarlTheMartian who cleans up?

r343l past cate buys so many books I rarely feel like I make an active decision about what to read next.

r343l but dianakimball introduced me to "send sample" which I hope will become life changing soon. So far it's saved me $$$$$
